Doctors Remove A DRILL BIT Inhaled By Patient During Dental Visit!

If you already hate going to the dentist -- this probably won't make you feel any better.

During a routine trip to the dentist last month, an Illinois man inhaled the dentist's drill bit and had to go to the hospital to have it removed. 60-year-old Tom Jozsi was getting a tooth filled when he was told he accidentally swallowed a tool.

"I didn't really even feel it going down." Doctors believe that Jozsi inhaled just before he coughed, sending the 1-inch bit deep into his lungs. Luckily, the hospital was able to grab it using a special device without surgery. Jozsi now keeps the drill bit displayed on a shelf at home. Do you have a crazy story of a medical mishap?
